Use the diagram to find the missing measures. The measure of angle GHE is °. The length of GE is .

Charlene puts together two isosceles triangles so that they share a base, creating a kite. The legs of the triangles are 10 inches and 17 inches, respectively. If the length of the base for both triangles is 16 inches long, what is the length of the kite’s other diagonal?

If the measure of angle BCD is 67.4°, the measure of angle ABC is °. If the length of base AB is 80 feet, the length of DC is feet.

It is given that trapezoid EFGH is an isosceles trapezoid. We know that FE ≅ GH by the definition of . The base angle theorem of isosceles trapezoids verifies that angle is congruent to angle . We also see that EH ≅ EH by the property. Therefore, by , we see that ΔFHE ≅ ΔGEH.

It is given that quadrilateral ABCD is a kite. We know that AD ≅ CD by the definition of . By the kite diagonal theorem, AC is to BD This means that angles AED and CED are right angles. We also see that ED ≅ ED by the property. Therefore, we have that ΔAED ≅ ΔCED by .
